“Artists from around Australia & the world showed work examining, critiquing, speculating within, the sphere of the Biotechnological. This nascent science-in its more interventionist forms of gene splicing and chromosomal experiment-might alter the face of the world as we know it & will require ethical judgements and imaginative engagement if these changes are to be safely guided and met with. To this end artists rebuked our effacement of the deaths of industrially farmed animals, offered a form of resistance to MonsantoÕs planned seed empire, illustrated the path of an arbitrary chromosomal change, grew a quarter-scale human ear, polled our taste preferences with regards a satirical (but possible) combination of the biologically lovely & the off-putting.”
